The guards in the palace soon brought the horses, and Char rode three horses alone, and after tying the horses, he galloped out of the city.
Before he could run to the gate of the city, he heard the sound of horses' hooves behind him, and faintly heard someone shouting, Char hurriedly reined in his horse, and when he looked back, he saw Grimm riding his horse galloping wildly, and when he rushed to the front, the old mad dog was covered with sweat, and his face was even more pale, and his face was full of rage.
"Char, where are you going" Green roared angrily, "You sent someone to inform me just now, saying that you were going out for a while, and let me take full responsibility for what you are messing around" Char sat on the horse, looked into Green's eyes, and took a deep breath: "My wife ran away, I'm going to chase her back." ” This sentence immediately made Green's face pale, and the old mad dog sat on the horse, and his body shook, and he almost fell off the horse.
Then he finally roared "What are you talking about, you bastard boy, how many big things are waiting for you to do at the moment, the new army is about to be established, at this moment the military affairs are heavy, and there are tigers and wolves all around, and the situation does not allow us to take a breather.
Char said: "Isn't there still you here?"
"But you're the leader," Grimm the mad dog said almost with a wild roar Char also had a gloomy face, riding on the horse, his eyebrows were fiercely tangled, his eyes were cloudy, and he just looked at Green.
"Big things are important, how can you delay the right thing for the sake of your children's private feelings, Xia Ya Leiming, you are a person who wants to do big things, you want to achieve great things, how can you be like this, mother-in-law, mother, how many people look at you, how many people's worth, surname, and life are entrusted to you, you are now burdened with multiple burdens, multiple responsibilities, don't you know yourself?"
Green looked dizzy, and the two of them were under the city gate, and Green began to curse.
The soldiers and passers-by around the gate began to watch.
Fortunately, a group of guards who came with Green immediately began to perform their duties, driving away the surrounding onlookers from a distance.
"Green."
Char took a deep breath, stared carefully into Green's eyes, and said in a deep voice, word by word: "I know what I am carrying, and I also know my responsibility, but please understand, I know what I am doing now."
"Your mission now is to protect this land," Green growled.
"Guardian" Char suddenly smiled, his smile was a little strange, and there was some deep self-deprecation: "Guardian" Then he raised his voice, and glared at Green and shouted: "As a man's husband, if he can't even protect his own wife, it is simply self-deception to talk about protecting other lands and people."
Speaking of this, Char looked at Green with his head up: "I know what I'm doing, I've made up my mind, Green, you don't have to say anything more about me going, but after a few words, I'll come back after chasing Adeline, and I won't delay for a few days Besides, isn't there still you here." ” Green was so angry that his fingers trembled, his face was pale, he glared at Char, and just shouted in a low voice: "The vertical is stupid and stupid."
Char looked at Green's appearance and knew that this old mad dog was very angry, he sighed, but his decision was absolutely unchangeable, so he bent over at Green and whispered: "I'm sorry, Green, I have to do this" After saying that, Char turned the horse's head, turned around and headed out of the city, the horse's hooves were hurrying, splashing yellow dust all the way, and headed north.
Green was under the city gate, sitting on a horse, still pale, trembling with anger, and couldn't help whispering and scolding: "Idiot, a big idiot, I, Green, am also a fool, how can I assist such an unsuccessful bastard, Lao Tzu will not do it, such a fool, how can it be done, Lao Tzu will not do it?"
After scolding for a while, I suddenly heard a leisurely laugh next to me: "Lord Green, but I really want to resign and go into hiding."
Greenhuran turned his head and glared at the speaker with a furious face.
Fudax, riding on a horse, he actually happened to be at Green's place just now to deal with military affairs, so he galloped with Green to stop Char, but when Green stopped Char, this guy was watching the play next to him, but he didn't say a word.
At this moment, Char ran away, Green was angry and scolded, but this guy was leisurely on the side, holding a little thumb in one hand, digging his ear holes, and showing a comfortable smile on his face to speak in this tone, which is really a little unflattened.
Green immediately grimaced and looked at Dax: "You" "I don't think you really want to throw your sleeves and leave, but you're just angry, hehe, you don't need to say it anymore."
Dax hurriedly smiled pleasantly: "I think that our boss, although he is young and impulsive, is not bad." ” "But for the sake of a woman, throw so many serious things away" Dax didn't wait for Green to finish, but suddenly interrupted Green's words, and asked: "Lord Green, let me ask you a question, if this boss of ours is the kind of surname who can harden his heart in order to succeed, be ruthless, and can sacrifice anyone, if he is such a person, will you still be as willing to follow him as you are now?"
Greene: "" Dax looked at Green, a smile flashed in his eyes, walked over, flicked his little thumb lightly, and then pulled Green's sleeve, and said with a smile: "Okay, I've scolded and scolded, and I'm really angry anymore, when that guy comes back, I'll help you scold him a few more words."
If it doesn't work, enforce military law and beat him with a few sticks.
I've heard that our lord is very willing to set an example to accept military justice, and yesterday I heard that he took the initiative to receive a military stick on the training ground."
As he spoke, Dax dragged Green back at last, and almost pulled an old Green off his horse.
"Okay, my Lord Green, don't be angry, I'm here to ask you to reimburse the expenses for the activities I went out to purchase, hey, I paid a lot of money out of my own pocket, you can't rely on my account, I'm very poor, alas, where to find a good person like me who is loyal to my duty, take out my own personal pocket to handle official business feeding, old mad dog, you have a word, I can wait for your reimbursement, otherwise I won't even have the money for tomorrow's meal, don't keep a straight face, give a word, give a word."
As the sun sets, the sky is full of red glow, and the evening of this originally desolate wildfire field is reflected in a little red, as if it is full of life.
In the small town on this side of Wildfire Town, a flowery horse slowly walked in from the slightly dilapidated town gate, and when passing by the small circular square in the city gate, the people on the horse suddenly sighed faintly.
Adeline wore a felt hat with the brim lowered and some blonde hair peeking out on either side.
She was wearing a men's outfit, which was exactly what she wore when she "said goodbye" to Char that day, and there was some frost and dust on her face at the moment, which was obviously the traces left by riding all the way.
When she walked into this wildfire town, Adeline was obviously a little absent-minded, looking at this town, she suddenly felt sad and entangled here, it was the place where he grew up Walking through this street, looking at the houses on both sides, looking at the various costumes of pedestrians and mercenaries, merchants, Adeline's mind didn't know where it flew.
"When the time comes, get a house in Wildfire Town, raise a few horses, and let that guy from Tatara perform magic tricks, and we can form a circus."
I suddenly remembered the voice of the ruthless guy in my heart, and remembered that when he said this, he had a simple smile on his face, and hell, how did he lose his mind in the first place, so that he actually thought that this turtle would be the man who could rely on him Wildfire Town, alas, if Wildfire Town hadn't been chased back to Yanjing, but really came here with him, we would have bought a house here, had our own yard, and raised a few horses.
Wildfire Town, Wildfire Town, it's such a sad place.
A bitter smile appeared on Adeline's face.
It wasn't the first time she had gone out on her own, at least with some common sense, she had learned to make some changes to her outfit.
At this moment, Adeline, who originally had beautiful long blond hair, had been cut into a short hair by herself, pressed with a broken felt hat, and at the same time, her face was covered with dust, and she deliberately used some makeup to make her face look more angular, and it looked a little more masculine.
Coupled with that men's robe, as well as her original Odin blood, tall and tall, if you don't look carefully, it won't show too many flaws.
Adeline already knows very well that her beautiful appearance will be a source of danger for a girl who goes out alone.
However, although she realized that she had changed her outfit, after all, this noble princess still lacked some experience in the rivers and lakes.
Just when she entered Wildfire Town absentmindedly, she didn't notice that in the corner next to the city gate, a few covetous eyes were already staring at her A stranger who came to Wildfire Town Mountain and was alone, with no companions.
What's more, the burden on Adeline's horse's back was obviously made of high-grade fabric, and in that bulging baggage, it was obviously not only clothes, but also some other things, plus the scabbard of the sword on her body was also of high-quality crocodile skin, and it was also inlaid with precious stones.
These are enough to attract prying eyes.

In the night, several figures followed Adeline all the way behind without moving.
The war didn't seem to affect the prosperity of Wildfire Town, and even at night, the streets were full of people: drunks who staggered, and merchants dressed in all sorts of clothes, some with the same drunken maiden in their arms, and some with suspicious faces, standing in the corners of the walls and talking in low voices, not knowing what to do, and occasionally some majestic and courteous mercenaries, carrying swords and weapons, walking through the streets with their heads held high, deliberately leaving their shirts open to expose their strong muscles, Attracting the girls on both sides of the road to solicit business, and throwing away winks from time to time, Adeline rode down the street into Wildfire Town.
It's like a little white rabbit walking into a wolf's den.
There were inns on both sides of the street, but Adeline walked past two and saw the dirty shops from afar.
After walking two streets, she finally stopped in front of a shop with a sign of wine glasses.
Obviously, this is a complex of a tavern and an inn.
The small sliding door at the door was half-open, revealing the glow of the red lights, which contrasted sharply with the dark streets outside, and the lively noise coming from the door, the shouting of drunkards, the music of the playing of the violin, and the cheerful rhythm of tap dancing, and most importantly, the signboards, doors and windows of the shop were cleanly scrubbed.
Adeline tugged at her hat and finally made her decision, dismounting and walking to the door of the shop.
A man at the door immediately greeted him, took Adeline's horse, and led her into the shop.
It's not too big, but it makes Adeline feel like she's been here the last time she's been here Well, I don't quite remember.
More than ten tables in the store sat for most of the time, many customers were happily holding wine glasses and drinking, laughing and laughing, and in the middle of the store, a guy with only one eye, wearing a Lantisian pirate turban, holding a piano in his hand, was playing excitedly, under his music, many customers even stood on the table and danced happily, and some merchants, hugging the girl and laughing unscrupulously.
The one-eyed one who played the violin, with a smile on his face, and when he grinned, he had a mouthful of gold teeth.
Looking at the gold tooth, it seemed to touch something sad in Adeline's heart, and she immediately turned her head.
Walking to the bar, there was a middle-aged aunt with a headscarf on her head, a bucket-thick waist, a coarse cloth skirt, and a smudged bib, holding a cloth in her hand, wiping her wine glass.
"Good night, young guest welcome to the One-Eyed Inn, what do you need to order honey, we have the best ale in all of Wildfire" The middle-aged aunt behind the bar smiled heartily.
"I" Adeline spoke, and then immediately realized that her voice was too crisp, and lowered her voice, deliberately whispering in a thick voice, "I haven't eaten dinner yet, do you have anything to eat?"
The middle-aged aunt behind the bar showed a strange smile in the corner of her eyes, looked at Adeline, and then smiled happily: "Of course, there are some stewed lamb tendons in the kitchen, and some fresh bean soup, which is thick and fragrant, hehe, I suggest you must try the bean soup boiled by my Aunt Sofia, but it is the most famous delicacy in Wildfire Town." ” The name Aunt Sofia made Adeline's heart seem to move a little.
It seems that I have heard this name in the mouth of that turtle She shook her head vigorously, then tried to force herself to push the man's shadow out of her mind.
The enthusiastic Aunt Sofia quickly walked out from behind the bar and led Adeline to a table near the corner, near the lively table in the middle, all occupied by other guests.
Just as Adeline sat down, the door of the store was pushed open, and several suspicious-looking guys walked in, and after looking around the door, these people aimed at Adeline in the corner, and then walked over quietly, and sat at a table not far from Adeline, two of them ran to the bar to ask for a few glasses of ale, and a few people divided them, and sat there, as if they were drinking carelessly, but from time to time they glanced at Adeline's baggage.
Adeline looked at the cheerful customers in the store, the laughter around her, and the laughter and music, and her heart, which was originally a little cold, seemed to be a little warmer.
She was out of her mind for a moment, at this time. syllable A plate was placed in front of her.
Adeline looked up and saw that the kind-eyed Aunt Sofia was already standing in front of her, placing a plate of steaming lamb stew and beans in front of her, and shoved herself with a spoon.
At the end, a large glass of ale was served.
"The wine is given for free."
Aunt Sofia looked at Adeline with a smile: "Drinking a little less ale will not get drunk, but it will make you more comfortable."
Looks like you're going to stay here tonight, and I'll sort out a clean room and hot bath water for you upstairs. ” Adeline was about to say two words of thanks, but Aunt Sofia added as if nothing had happened: "If you are young, you should be careful when you go out alone." ” As he spoke, his eyes seemed to sweep over the table next to him.
Unfortunately, Adeline didn't understand what she meant, she just nodded and said a few words of thanks.
Aunt Sofia pursed her lips and walked back, and as she was leaving, she seemed to mumble two sentences, as if something like "true image".
Although Adeline was hungry, she had infinite worries in her heart, so although the plate of mutton stew and beans in front of her was indeed delicious, and Aunt Sofia's bean soup was also very fragrant, she still only ate a small half before putting down the spoon.
But the big glass of ale was drunk by her without a drop left.
The ale is very low in content, and there is some sweet aroma of wheat, but it is not too difficult to drink.
But Adeline rarely drinks alcohol after all, and after drinking a glass of ale wine, after a while, her face is a little red, and she is already full of worries, and she is excited by this wine, and even her eyes can't help but be a little trance.
Just as Adeline's eyes began to lose focus, two of the people at the table next to her stood up, quietly watching the people in the middle dance, and quietly moved towards Adeline's table.
One of them, with one hand behind his back, also had a short dagger hidden in his sleeve Adeline seemed to be a little delirious, she was so tired, in fact she hadn't slept well for many days, and now she had eaten and drunk enough, and drank a little more, and as she sat down at the table, she began to feel a little dizzy, and she didn't even have to wait until the two guys were almost standing against their own table.
One of the guys, turned sideways, shielded the outside from the outside with his body, and at the same time quietly turned the dagger, the blade was bright At this time, suddenly, the fat figure didn't know when, like a ghost, suddenly appeared next to the two of them, a thick palm full of calluses, gently held the wrist holding the dagger, and then seemed to shake it casually.
When The dagger fell to the ground with a bang, and the sound woke up Adeline, who was a little dozing.
"An original child, don't bully others."
Aunt Sofia was still smiling, pinching a thief's wrist, and said lightly: "Didn't your boss teach you that you are not allowed to do business in my shop?"
The thief who was pinched by her wrist was covered with sweat, his face turned white with pain, and he reluctantly smiled: "Auntie, but he is a foreigner, we understand the rules, but we can't touch locals here, this kid" "Oh, that's right."
Aunt Sofia seemed to smile even more happily: "Then go back and tell your boss that the rules have changed from today onwards, and you are not allowed to do business in my shop, whether it is local or foreign."
Got it?"
The thief stooped down cleanly.
Aunt Sofia let go of her hand at this time, and smiled kindly: "You little Jack, you grew up drinking the bean soup I cooked, but you came to me to be naughty, okay, let's go, rub some medicinal oil on your wrist when you go back." ” The thieves immediately fled to Wildfire Town, and those who really understood knew very well that this aunt in the tavern was unprovoked Adeline sat there stunned, and it took her a moment to realize what had just happened The dagger on the ground lay at his feet "Thank you, Sofia, Aunt Sofia."
Adeline opened her mouth.

Aunt Sofia was already sitting beside her, looking at Adeline, her eyes full of smiles: "Okay, dear, it's okay now, you don't have to worry, no one will cause trouble with me." ” As she spoke, she picked up the dagger on the ground.
Adeline was afraid: "They want to kill me" "Kill you" Aunt Sofia was stunned, then laughed, shook her head and said, "No, no, no, don't kill, they don't dare."
They were just kids on the streets, and they didn't dare kill anyone.
Holding this dagger, it's just to cut through your baggage and take the opportunity to steal something, of course, if you find out, use this dagger to threaten you, so that you don't dare to shout for help. ” As she spoke, Aunt Sofia had already raised her hand and gently stroked Adeline's head, which was a little too intimate, but she did it as if it was very natural, so natural that even Adeline herself didn't feel anything abrupt about this action.
"It's really like that."
Aunt Sofia seemed to sigh in a low voice.
Then she smiled again: "Okay, dear, it looks like you're tired, I've prepared the room above, the quilt and sheets have just been washed today, you can go up and rest first, and I'll bring the bath water to you later" Speaking of this, she lowered her voice and smiled: "Don't worry, the things in the room are very clean, I will give you my niece's room, she has already married, and the room is just empty."
I've never been in this room for a man who smells like that.
I think a beautiful and lovely girl like you must love cleanliness. ” Adeline's mouth immediately opened wide.
"Well, don't be so surprised, my dear, this is Wildfire.
Your little makeup skills are only enough to fool those street thieves. ” As she spoke, Aunt Sofia looked at the plate in front of Adeline, frowned, and said, "You eat too little, my child, eat some more, otherwise you will be hungry in the middle of the night."
Oh, I remember, you must have a bad appetite, I have some sauerkraut cabbage, but it's appetizing, I'll get you a bowl. ” Aunt Sofia immediately stood up and walked to the back of the bar, and was busy with something, just when the sliding door of the tavern was pushed open again.
This time, a tall and tall figure outside the door slowly walked in The figure that came in was tall, with broad shoulders, a thick and majestic body, a narrow waist and long legs.
As soon as she saw this figure, Adeline's eyes immediately lit up, but then she immediately showed a disappointed expression when she saw the person who came, but then, when the person who walked in took off her low-pressed hat, and flicked the dust on it, under the light, when she saw this person's face clearly, Adeline's face suddenly showed a terrified expression Her body trembled violently, her face suddenly turned pale, and then she couldn't help but shrink into the corner of the wall, and quickly leaned down The tall man at the door, with a handsome face, with rough eyebrows, broad forehead, and a masculine face, was full of an angular sense of strength.
But those eyes were slender, adding a bit of wisdom and femininity to this face that should have been rough.
He wore a long gown, which looked very simple, but the belt around his waist was a rare colorful snakeskin, and his brown-black hair was a little messy, but it showed a little fluttering feeling.
The lips are very thin, and the appearance of the lip line is clear, and the general one is the kind of person who is resolute Judging by his appearance, he is not very old, no more than thirty years old at most.
The man stood in the doorway, and smiled softly, the light shining on his face, and that smile carried an indescribable sense of arrogance and nobility "Excuse me, is Aunt Sofia there?"
The young man's voice didn't seem to be loud, and his tone was quite peaceful, but there seemed to be a sonorous metal feeling in his voice, just like the killing aura of the Jin Ge Iron Horse on the battlefield Such a soft word, but strangely suppressed the noisy hustle and bustle of the audience, as well as the lively sound of the piano and the sound of dancing Everyone in the audience, even those who danced happily in the middle, heard every word of this sentence clearly in their ears, and it was so clear This young man seemed to be just a soft, simple sentence, and suddenly the audience fell silent He looked at the crowd, and after finally sweeping his eyes around, he landed on Aunt Sofia behind the bar.
His eyes lit up immediately.
Aunt Sofia squinted at the young man, but her brows couldn't help but wrinkle slightly.
"It seems that you must be the honorable Aunt Sofia."
The young man stroked his chest with one hand, then bent down deeply to salute: "I am very honored to meet you.
Maybe I should call you Aunt Sofia, but I guess it's not your real name anyway, so we don't have to worry too much about the details of the title. ” Aunt Sofia didn't speak, just looked at the young man, from head to foot, from foot to head, and then let out a long sigh: "Look at you, just like that bastard father who has enough of you."
Alas" The young man was not angry at all, but also smiled lightly: "As soon as I look at you, I know that my trip was not in vain, I walked more than 1,400 miles in detour, and ran to death Two of my favorite thoroughbred horses met you, and I am finally sure that I did not run in vain this trip."
You are as your father said, you are a great man. ” "Hmph" Aunt Sofia snorted: "You came here just to see me" The young man bent down again, this time more respectfully: "I was originally going to the west, but just before I left, my father told me a special detour to Wildfire Town, and made a special trip to visit you.
Dear Aunt Sofia, I brought my father's most sincere greeting, and he said that an old friend like you would have liked to come and visit him in person.
However, because everyone knew the reason, it was not convenient for him to come in person, so he could only ask me to bring the greetings. ” Speaking of this, after a pause, the young man continued: "In addition, my father has asked me to bring you a question."
"Question" Aunt Sofia pouted: "You bastard father, what questions do you have for me" "I offended my father's original words, he told me, I must let me convey a good word to you as it is."
As he spoke, the young man straightened up, held his head high, looked at Aunt Sofia, and shouted coldly: "Sophie, I heard that you expelled my soldiers in Wildfire Town, and you made such a move, do you intend to break the rule of not competing with the world, I hope you don't try to touch my bottom line again, otherwise, you should understand that I want you guys to break the contract first than anyone else."
